3. Moonlight walks
Alicia Blade

I've had these dreams since I can remember, and probably even before. They're never clear. They never answer any questions or give any clues, but they do wake me every night, trembling and cold. I've taken to escaping from my bed's imprisonment into the empty streets, empty except for me and the moonlight. Sometimes the night air leaves me lonely. Sometimes I return to my apartment as if the walk were the dream and the nightmare the reality.
Sometimes the moon takes me into her arms like a lost lover, heartbroken only that I will leave her when morning comes.
